Andrew Dornenburg

Andrew Dornenburg and his wife Karen Page have written groundbreaking books chronicling and celebrating America’s culinary revolution that have won every major gastronomic book award, including the Georges Duboeuf Wine Book of the Year, Gourmand World Cookbook Award – Best in the World, IACP Cookbook of the Year, and the James Beard Book Award for Best Writing on Food.

How does one get to be a great cook--the kind who can walk into a kitchen and create a dish from scratch and know exactly how to make it taste delicious? In this extraordinary new exploration of culinary greatness, Karen Page reveals the secrets and techniques that the best chefs use to create memorable, delicious meals. For professional and home cooks alike, Page shows how we can all answer a universal question: How do I cook something new tonight? As Page shows, good cooking is not just the right recipe or ingredients: it's a mental approach we can all cultivate--and on the subject of such "food IQ," Karen Page's insight is unrivaled. She will supplement her two decades of culinary experience with more than a hundred interviews with leading chefs from around the world. Page's books display a profound intelligence and intuition about the world of food, chefs, and cooking-and they are supported by an extraordinary set of personal and professional connections. Page has anticipated or created culinary trends from her very first book, and KITCHEN CREATIVITY will lead cooks of all kinds to greater skill and creativity.More/less
